10 REASONS TO USE VASELINE ON THE FACE | Dermatologist

My dear grandma, who trained as a beautician in the 1930’s, would remove her makeup every evening with Vaseline and then add another layer as her nighttime moisturizer. As a teen in the early 90’s who was fully on the “oil-free” train I thought she was insane. But I was stripping my skin with foaming cleansers and saturating it with alcohol toners and wondering why I still had zits! She lived to 95 and had beautiful, supple skin until the end. Grandma knew a thing or two after all!

My best friend's mother used vaseline on her face every night and at 86 she had no wrinkles whatsoever. Her skin looked amazing. So yes it does work miracles.

I’ve been using Vaseline around my eyes for 45 years to treat the dryness on the skin of my eyelids and under my eyes. I started using it as a teenager, and it’s the longest skincare regime I have used, and I am 60 years old. I highly recommend using Vaseline than wasting money on high end and expensive eye creams.

We have been bamboozled by nutrition and skincare. Eat the eggs, use Vaseline. So simple and effective. My grandmother used to slightly heat it in a small dedicated pot just for Vaseline to warm it up and thin it out. She then applied it warm to her face. EVERY NIGHT.

On the way to work before the sun rose, my Mom tripped over a broken parking lot bumper. She cracked open the nose skin big time & was bleeding profusely. She went home, washed, packed it with Vaseline & bandaged it. Called me afterwards. We waited hours in ER. Dr looked at it, re-bandaged it & said she had done a spectacular job. It was already healing! Didn't need stitches! And she was left only with a minor scar.

When growing up in Finland my mother used to put Vaseline on our faces before going out into the winter to play all day. Preventing us from wind , cold and possibly frost bite.

A dermatologist many years ago told me to use Vaseline. He was over 60 at the time with no wrinkles

Can we just take a moment to admire how good Andrea looks compared to her older videos? She looks stunning, healthy, happier, bright. Love her.

My daughter, at age seven, had horrible cracks in the bottom of her feet. Sometimes they would bleed. The doctor suggested a prescription cream that didn't work and then another cream. Both of them came in a tube only slightly larger than my baby finger and both cost close to $50. Neither helped and so in desperation I slathered her feet with Vaseline, put cotton socks on her and sent her to bed. In the morning there was a great improvement. By the end of the week her feet were totally healed. I also found it to be a great treatment for diaper rash (back in the day before disposables.) The Vaseline provided a moisture barrier and cleared up the problem.

Who else is loving Dr Dray's colorful looks and makeup? Did someone get their color analysis done? 👀🙂😏

As a young teenager in the 60's I have used petroleum jelly as my main stay. This normally horrified women in my life when they learned this about me. I just attended my 50-year class reunion, I look fabulous and decades younger than my peers because of using the vasoline ;)

I literally don't watch any skincare channels on YT. Dr.Dray more than enough and she is the best

I LOOOVE using vaseline on my face😍I slather my entire face with it before going to sleep and I wake up with the softest skin✨vaseline has done more for my skin than all these overhypes overpriced products out there

I grew up in the 50's and it was either Vaseline or Noxema as far as skincare goes. Also we weren't into washing your face with chemical strippers - plain soap and water. I now have exzema on my face and when it was diagnosed the doctor told me to wash my face and slather on vaseline. It works like a charm!

Been using vaseline for well over 35 years. My grandmother did this and had the most gorgeous skin.

I watch you regulaly, and have added vaseline to my nightly routine. The vaseline has improved my facial skin, greatly. Thank you so much!

I was really struggling with the chlorine in the pool this summer. I took your advice about applying it before swimming and it’s made a huge difference, especially around my eyes. Thank you for all of the science based, practical information you provide!

I am loving your switch to playing with more color. Both as fashion and home decor. Loved your serious neutral looks with grey and navy but seeing more pops of color like orange has been a bright and cheery look. It's great to see more of your creativity with color.

Watching this with my face full covered with vaseline after my skincare routine... as every night and I love it 🥰 Thanks for all the info, doc 🤍

I am 68 years old (aging,dryness, wrinkles), and I fight rosacea. I've been using Vaseline to remove my eye makeup. It's cost friendly ( I'm on social security ), and I find it effective.
